Works fine except ANSY escape seqs Works fine with FTDI CHIPI-X usb2rs232 interface. Only an issue: terminal does not recognise ANSI escape sequences, such as clear display or move cursor position (sequences starting with {ESC}[ are displayed: for example █[2J instead of executing the command and clearing the screen)

Works Plugged in to my Polaroid Tablet. Checked coms by shorting pin 2 and 3 and it certainly only returned the coms when there was a short. Would be nice to have more then just ASCII strings. Binary Decimal hexadecimal would be nice too as well as alternative ways to view the data received for us electronics tinkerers.

Nice features, very good, but too small buffer I was looking for an Android app to monitor my wireless arduinos (panstamps) activities. I tried a few, and this one is the best of the pack : the ability to send the buffer by email is very nice, and its ability to start automatically when connecting the USB device is very good as well. The only annoying fact is that the buffer is limited to about 5kBytes, and there is no way to increase it. This means I frequently interesting data. I wish I could extend it at least tenfold. (what's a 64kB email nowadays ?)

Works very well, most of the time I love this, can talk to my arduino just by pluging it in. Its open source. Just one thing, once in a blue moon it locks up the tablet (Nexus 7) for anywhere between seconds to a minute or two and then it reboots. Please, PLEASE figure out whats wrong because i think it might be something stupid that's breaking it.

Thanks Hey there, I just wanted to let you know that this is the first app that I've managed to get communicating with my Adafruit Flora which is based on the ATmega32u4. Is there an app that would allow me to read back from the arduino? Thanks!

Apps not compatible with pcduino & cubieboard development board Apps not compatible with pcduino & cubieboard development board dear developer, i really loves this apps. it makes easier for serial communication. however, this apps not support on both pcduino & cubieboard development board. hopefully the new version of this apps support both development board especially pcduino as this board design for arduino based running linux OS & android OS. same goes for cubieboard as this board running android OS. it would be great if this apps can running on both development boards as these boards can be functioning as a pc.

Problem - Toasts Cannot open Please helppp! The app works like a charm but when I used the link in the description to run the app from the github code i can only write (send) plus i get a cannot open toast

1. Quick Start1) Please use the OTG cable to connect the usb device on your smart phone.2) smart phone detect usb device, and then asks whether to run.Click OK to run the App.3) Click the Settings button (wrench icon) of upper right corner in order to set serial communication.4) Click the Save button.5) Click the Connect button (phone icon) of upper right corner in order to connect to the device.

- ASCII table: ASCII Code table. ASCII code inserted to text field When you select a code, and the window is closed, the inserted codes appended to tx text field

5. FAQQ: Why my smart phone detect usb device?A: Smartphones make sure it supports the USB Host.In addition, the Android version 3.1 (API Level 12) from the USB Host support.Occasionally on the smartphone does not recognize USB devices (eg Galaxy Note 1). Smartphone otg cable to connect to leave only the part that is connected to the equipment by unplugging and re-connect if you recognize that this case is.

USB host is a very powerful feature of recent Android based smartphones and tablets, but on many firmwares (both stock and custom) the feature is somewhat broken.

For example, at launch the Galaxy Nexus told all the apps and the Market that it supported USB host, but USB host did not actually work (this was fixed in the Android 4.0.2 update). This broke several apps.

That is just one example of many. There are even cases where OEMs advertise USB host support, but the device does not support it at all. It appears as if USB host support isn't tested by Google or the OEMs when they push out new firmwares and devices at all.

As we cannot depend on Google or the OEMs to correctly provide information regarding USB host support, and the Android framework will regularly lie about it to both the Market as well as Android apps, this application was created so you can test your device's USB host capabilities for yourself.

If you allow it, the app will also submit your results to my website, so together we can create a complete database of devices and firmwares and their USB host support.

This app is an attempt to help you find all types of downloads and documentation to let you connect your Android device to your PC.

HEXAMOB has made a drivers compilation of many manufacturers with devices that are using the Android Operating System. There may be some cases where packages can be used for your specific device but there are others cases where you need to install a specific driver for your smartphone or tablet.

Shows enumerated usb devices, and allows you to mount external mass storage devices to the filesystem. Supports advanced features like the ability to reload partition tables and reseting USB devices. It can also control the USB Host functionality of S5PC210 devices with the appropriate kernel patch (more about this later)

The application does not use the USB Host API, so it can also run on older, 2.x devices. Because of that however almost all functionality (except for the listing of USB devices) requires root (superuser) access, and a recent version of busybox installed!

The application needs a device that has USB Host (or USB OTG) functionality. Most modern high-end devices have this ability. Check the documentation and specification of your device (this functionality is usually called USB OTG or USB Host)

If your device doesn't have native USB OTG functionality, there are kernel patches for some older devices to enable the functionality, most notably for:

This tool is a simple tool for Developpers.You can call Settings UI which can toggle Enabling USB Debug etc,same as Settings -> Applications -> Development.You can check your own appearance to select there.(in your environment,item numbers shown may be different from screenshots).I place this tool at my home screen. I made this tool for practice purpose and my own use.

※This tool is not usb driver.Please install usb driver if you can't connect device and pc.Usually you can download it from device vendor's site.

psI got inquiry,so add notes.At first, I try to make this tool as widget which can toggle USB Debug settings directly if you touch it.But I don't adapt it because it's not recommended way from Android 1.5. So I choose normal Activity which just finishes after calling Settings UI.

This miniature app is to change your usb mode from MTP to mass storage and vice versa.

The app was made for CM9 users on the Samsung Galaxy S. It is reported to work on the Samsung Galaxy S2 and the Samsung Galaxy Note as well.It does NOT work on the Samsung Galaxy S3 and most likely it will not work on the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 also. All devices tat came shipped with Android 3.x and above will not be able to run on mass storage, unfotunately I can only block lower api's, not higher api's on the play store.

This Plugin is for tablets (like the Nexus 7 or Nexus 10) or phones (like Nexus 5) which have an USB OTG connector, but do not mount attached USB Sticks.Reading from and writing to an attached USB-Stick is possible.ROOT rights are NOT needed.FAT12, FAT16, FAT32 and exFAT formatted sticks can be read and written.NTFS formatted Sticks can be read.

If you have tested the plugin you can buy the full version or update to the next trial release.

Android 3.1 introduced USB hostmode which allows the user to plug USB devices to your Android tablet in the same way as a Desktop PC and extend its functionality (if the tablet has the correct drivers of course).

This application will provide information about almost all currently plugged-in USB device (see below for more info about the 'almost').

If you download the accompanying databases, the application will also be able to provide you with additional info such as the Vendor of the device (which is not necessarily the brand!), the vendor's logo and the product name.

Each mode (Android/Linux) will provide slightly different information. For example Android mode will give you more information about a device's endpoints and interfaces, while Linux mode will give more information about the device itself (serial number, how it identifies itself, etc.)

Device Subclass resolution will be added in the next version.

I wrote this application as an exercise to explore fragments and the new USB host API. Hopefully it will be useful to someone else.

Automatically mount and dismount USB sticks on various devices like the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10. The Nexus 4 is not supported - this is an issue with the device, not with StickMount !

!!! REQUIRES ROOT !!!

Various Nexus and "stock Android" devices do not automatically "mount" mass storage devices (such as USB sticks). StickMount has been made to solve this problem, and give you access to the files on your USB connected storage from all your apps.

StickMount is known to work on many devices, but is built *only* with *Nexus* devices in mind.

Once StickMount is installed and you connect a USB stick with a "USB host / OTG cable", the device will show you a popup if you want to open StickMount. It is advised to tell the device that you want to do this by default.

If you have just installed StickMount and you already had a USB stick connected, you must manually launch the program, or disconnect/reconnect the USB stick for StickMount to start working.

Mass storage devices are mounted to "/sdcard/usbStorage/xxxx/".

----- (Pro) Kill apps preventing unmount -----

Sometimes an app has a file in use located on the USB device, and won't let go of it. This can prevent StickMount from unmounting the USB device. It will seem like the device stays connected (this is harmless). StickMount Pro provides an option that attempts to kill (terminate) all the apps that are preventing the unmount from succeeding.

----- (Pro) Media scan -----

StickMount Pro supports triggering the media scanner on each (un)mount action. This will automatically make the files on your USB device available in apps like Gallery and Music. Please note that the media scanner is not a visible process on all Android devices - it might actually work silently in the background without any visual cues. It may take a minute for your files to show up, so don't panic if they don't show immediately.

Even if you have this option enabled, you can prevent folders from being scanned by placing an empty file called ".nomedia" in that folder. If you put it in the root of the USB device, the entire device will not be scanned.

----- (Pro) Mount as partition label -----

Instead of using the block device name for the partition, use the partition label as mount name, falling back to uuid or block device name if the label is unavailable.

----- (Pro) Create symbolic links -----

Create symbolic links in /mnt and /storage to the actual mounts in /sdcard/usbStorage/

----- Filesystem support -----

The filesystems supported depends on your device firmware. On most devices, at least vfat/fat/fat32 and ext2/3/4 are supported. On the latest Android versions, ntfs is also supported in read-only mode. Some devices also support exfat out the box, but most do not.

StickMount can utilize the "ntfs-3g" and "mount.exfat-fuse" binaries to add support for ntfs (untested) and exfat, but these are not included. If you place the "ntfs-3g" or "mount.exfat-fuse" files in the root of your internal storage ( /sdcard ), StickMount will automatically use them.

You can find the needed files here:ntfs-3g: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1145436&stc=1&d=1340293802mount.exfat-fuse: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=806200&d=1323109372

----- Troubleshooting -----

For some users, the app appears not to work, while in fact it is the device itself or the cable not working. One OTG cable is not the other OTG cable. If you have a USB stick with a light on it, it should light up when you connect it to the Galaxy Nexus using your OTG cable. If it does not, either your cable or your Nexus is faulty. 99 out of 100 times it is going to be your cable. That the cable works fine with another device does not mean anything! Cables known to work on a one devices may not work on another device.

SD card unmounting: If your SD card unmounts when unmounting a USB device, you have a bug in your kernel. This is *not* a bug in StickMount !
